Good morning,
The market’s focus remains firmly on semiconductors and technology. And with good reason. As Nvidia goes, so goes the S&P 500.
After the company briefly became the most valuable in the world early last week, it reversed hard and ended the week nearly 10% down from its highs.
The base case for Nvidia is the same as it was in early March. A confirmed reversal on the daily chart means last week’s high ($140.76) can be viewed as near-term resistance and a potential short-term top.
Below that level, the risk/reward looks poor to me but there’s nothing about the chart that suggests the long-term trend is a risk. Major tops have to start somewhere but they aren’t formed in a day or even a week.
But an underappreciated story was the bullish response from lagging areas of the market, amidst the sell-off in technology.
